I thought I'd start a thread about this topic - couldn't find it anywhere else on this forum. Basically let us know of the teams and players that are completely hopeless in BAL. Ajax are probably the weakest team I've played for. Two players to note on this team are Gabri and Suarez. I'm sure...

I have concluded tonight that the morale system in BAL is complete tripe and is based upon someone in Asia throwing a dice and determining what my morale will be. I have signed for Man Utd and am playing well, scoring quite a lot of goals, but what I cannot understand is why I am constantly on...

So we've had time to play PES, judge it accordingly and determine this years collection of rubbish "good" players - that is, footballers who are someway decent in real life but appear to be complete crap in PES. I've already complained about Martins, but he is actually decent in PES. I will...

Alright Lads, I'm just going to go through how to work with PES 2009 on the PS3 online. I'm using Eircom myself so I will be using that as an example. Imagine/Gaelic Telecom does not need any instructions, simply connect and away you go. I do not know about Perlico or any other provider. You...

Right so I went to visit my in-laws at the weekend and brought along the PS3. They have a Panasonic telly about 26 inch, fairly new but certainly not HD (ready or otherwise). Here at home I have a fairly crap barely 20 inch Bush with dodgy tubes that are about to go any month now (I will be...

Right so I turn on BAL and we're playing United, fair enough - hopefully Harry puts out a strong back line. He didn't. Instead he started with a centre-back pairing of Michael Dawson and ... Michael Dawson. Two games on and we're still playing with the Dawson twins. What the hell is going on?

Is it just me or does the referee give some really daft penalties? I just conceded one there on BAL where Rocha (playing for Spurs) tackles Johnson...a clean tackle, no one fell over and the ref awards a penalty! Another time I seen an excellent sliding tackle, from the side-no studs shown-no...

So, my first season on BAL ends me up at Newcastle. I was an SS left footer who could obviously play on the wings. This clearly troubled Obafemi as I might have received ten passes from him all season. Also I seen that he made some really STUPID mistakes, for example shooting from the corner...

I've noticed a typographical error...well Dave noticed it - In the main screen of BAL (or Master League I imagine) where they have the mini-stories, there is one that has the following: "The current team's leading goal scorer in the league! We find out the secret behind Gallagher's from!" - the...

Remember how we laughed at Rooney's default goal celebration on PES where he does a cartwheel thingy and punches the air...well maybe he was playing the game, saw the celebration and thought "Hey I can do that" - because he's after doing it today for his goal against Reading!

I have Man Utd in the Master League and my goalkeepers are as follows - Number 1 - Edwin Number 2 - Akinfeev Number 3 - Cech Yes Cech is my third choice because of couple of things; he has yet to keep a clean sheet (a lot of goals conceded are actually his fault, daft errors on his...

It seems that there is some confusion out there as to what a cross actually does on PES. The first thing you have to figure out is which "Long Pass Mode" is best for you. These can be found during match play under System Settings and Button Configuration. LPM Type 1: "When the player with the...

Right, I know my last post was about a dodgy linesman decision, apologies for being stuck in the same cast here but I just encountered what can only be complete bias on the referee's part! I was playing Spartak Moscow in my ML and it seemed that whatever move I made was deemed offensive in this...

Isn't it funny how the "old lino" is spot on all the time? He's like a "robot" - anywho he got one seriously wrong for me and poor Owen Hargreaves. Scenario: Corner Kick, opponents full backs on both posts. Ball comes in, touch of a deflection and makes it way to Anderson's head on the edge of...

I thought it'd be a good idea to start a thread about players who seem to be fairly good in real life but who appear not so good, or just downright rubbish in PES, could avoid some dodgy dealings in the transfer market for the ML. Three that I've found so far are all from AC Milano on the PS2...

Ok...I know this is very unsportsmanlike but when the Game cheats...then so can we! When you hear the referee blowing for an offside but the game still plays on, chase back and foul the attacker! In fact, if you're quick you can get two players ha! Yes, again, shocking behaviour but sometimes...

For those of us that have played for a youth team or a local town team we are all aware of that roar upon employing the offside trap. Usually the ball is cleared from a corner and immediately your Centre-back is screaming like a savage repelling settlers from abroad - "Get ouutttttttttttt" - you...

I was having a go at some of Jmz's formations there (found in the Advanced Formations Thread) and I noticed something that struck me as quite pleasing. In his Team Strategy for all his formations there it seems he has Zone Press and Counter Attack (x and o respectively). I decided to mess around...
